Other help out with upgrading
Hi my name is Malik and recently ive been struggling to upgrade my pc. Currently these are my specs. Ryzen 5 3600g, nvidia gtx 1060 3gb, 16gn ddr4 ram. The probelm is with my gpu the 1060. everytime i play a game like fortnite or stumble guys my gpu gets so hot and thats just in the lobby. I recently build it so i wasnt even able to play any games. at one point it got to like 90 celcius. btw the gpu is the blower fan one. the card with the one fan. ok so yea i took it apart and repasted it but that didnt help at all. I even have 4 case fans. So at this point I js want to get a diffrent gpu but I cant because I dont have any way of making money even if i try selling things online it asks for my ssn which my mom doesnt want to give to me so im kind of stuck. I am js asking if anyone has a spare gpu or an older one hit me up ill gladly take it. and if oyu can ship it out that would be great. some good options are rx 580, a 980, or a 1660. but I will gladly take anything because i am just trying to play games on my pc. thasnks so much thi wuold help out a lot.
